reposted my track, I had to add some dank memes, testing out some opensource software.

Bomb track, MSZ. Release and take my money

I like both versions. Very nice.

Maybe a little bit to cheesy for me. I don't know if vocal would make a benefit here. But i do like "Return to first love".

I like the part from about 47 seconds in, it grooves well, but the parts before aren't needed I think.

Keep it based around this groovey part IMO. Don't forget to vary your drums a bit otherwise it sounds loopey.

its ok, few things stand out
the pluck sound, whilst being really nice, is just way too loud in comparison to everything else - therefore your mix is unbalanced. Its ok to have it upfront but you went too far

hard to judge but reduce it by 3db and see how that sounds

you could do with some sort of bassline - something simple, just use some of the notes from the pluck sound - obviously play them down an octave lower

actually - you bring in another kick at 2:36 ish? that sounds nice but then you get rid of it - should keep that in, use this section as your track - everythings sounds balanced there, the pluck sound is balanced

I have lowered volume on pluck sound (is it still too loud?, this is pure headphone mix, it's too late now to listen on monitors), and change arrangement a bit. Also added a new part at around 4:00, it sounds awesome to me of course , but i am very subjective first couple of days after i make something, so please tell me how does it sound to you... is it too cheesy?

Didn't have time to sort drums or make eventual bass line.. Thanks again for all your suggestions.

im confused as to what your are doing - are those long sections with the weaker kick supposed to be breakdowns?
